Pain Recognition in Laboratory Rodents - do you see what you could (should) see?

Learning Objectives, Form, Scope, Content and Target Audience

It is quite easy for a doctor to find out from his patient whether he/she is in pain or not - the patient can express himself and is usually understood. Our animals also express themselves when they are in pain - but do researchers understand this expression of pain? For example, how does abdominal pain manifest itself in a laboratory mouse? Do you see everything you could (should) see?

 

The participants will learn:

- To recognize different qualities and quantities of pain in laboratory rodents

- How pain influences experimental results.

 

The one-day workshop will combine lectures and practical training on video footage and is aimed at researches working specifically with animals potentially in pain and those wanting to learn more about the species they are working with in general.
